Title: Making some progress
Post by SavRon on 12/31/10 at 16:54:14

 Got the bike in the garage and worked on her all day. Mostly just cleaning her up. Installed new saddlebags and highway pegs. Got the battery on trickle charge over night. Tomorrow will change oil/filter and add new gas and see if she fires.
 I could kick myself in the A$$ for letting her sit in the shed for over a year  >:( . In the 50's here today and I coulda been out riding. Few bikes went by the house today. Glad to see somebody taking advantage of the heat wave. Maybe I'LL pop a few miles tomorrow if all goes well. Temps are gonna drop into the 30's on Sunday and more snow coming. Do they make snow tires for the Savage ????  ;D

Ron, Cant you find a warmer place to keep the bike ? Like living room
or kitchen .I hate to think of a perfectly good bike sitting in a s-h-e-d.
I cand even say the word.

"No Worries Mick" ...little Crocodile Dundee humor for ya.

Suzy is in the garage now which is a bit warmer. She's cleaned up, fresh oil and gas and I just got her running and went for a quick ride..burrrr. Won't let her sit idle like that any more , too nice of a bike.

my cousin rides dirt bikes a lot and he claims some guys put short wood screws into their knobby tires - not long enuf to puncture - then ride on ice -i say maybe if you'r crazy!

of course these are the same guys flying through the air jumping i have no idea how high!

They do that all the time here to race on the ice,Most use short sheet metal screws.
